Be here now, live like this moment is all you got. Walk in the freedom that has been given to you. I want Love for us all. Here's a song I recently co-wrote with Baby Shoes.

Maria Kohler AKA @KITTYCRIMES and I got together for a collaboration. This song has a call and response, A/B, vibe going for it, she sang the first half through a megaphone and I sang the second. 
This is the first song on the B Side of déCollaboratory, the vinyls out Friday at Moe's BBQ. 
List of instruments/sounds we recorded and sampled: @scattergather sledgehammering pianos, Typewriters, Fireworks, Pi 3.14, Las Vegas Slot Machines, Kalimba, Wineglasses, Megaphone, Thrift Store kids toys and harps, gamblers winning in a casino....

"From the grandchildren of Elephant 6, a kaleidoscopic avant-pop anthem. If there’s any group that genuinely refuses to denote boundaries for itself, déCollage is it. The Denver four-piece—really more of a 20-piece, given the number of collaborators they’ve incorporated since their start in 2009—makes music that adheres to their name, a surreal collage of sounds that straddles psychedelia and all manner of pop music." ~ IMPOSE Magazine

Magnetize was released through Moon Magnet's Lunadrifter, the label's custom smart phone app from Ghost Time Games. It's synesthetic and you won't ever play the song the same twice. As the listener draws, kaleidoscopic fractals follow and affect the music with filters, FX... it's even possible to slow/speed/reverse every song and send a remix video to friends!

We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things∞not because they are easy, but because they are hard∞because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills∞because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too∞Listen close to the one we call our mother, yearning to feel love∞We will never know how far the ripple reaches∞The whale breaches, the crack of it’s tail like thunder stirs us up from slumber∞It’s time to be the change∞Ear to the ground, soak up the sun, it has begun, growing season∞Mother Earth buckled at her knees her children sing Maranatha∞The ocean of our bodies, in rhythm with the tide∞Affected by the moon hammer, we all fall and rise, fall and rise…

Better Things Pt 2

Created by Reed Fuchs & Matt Tanner {Snozberry Studios/ Rose Quartz}. The standout texture of the song is the use of mathematical Pi (3.14) broken down into musical midi data and played through various filters and synth arpeggiators, creating a swirling whirlwind of sacred geometric audio candy.

Feeling quite strange and there’s too much talk∞Never lookin back, never lookin far∞What do you have within your creases∞Bluesy chains of phosphorous, esoteric∞Whole step past the half-way holy man waitin on a tin can∞Disappear through the thin lit hologram, beggin for another chance∞Feel the pulse and peel the blindfold∞Welcome to the big show, I didn’t know you didn’t know, I didn’t know you didn’t know∞Indigo tribal, electro organo, pop gem

Hustle, hustle∞Pleasure, pleasure∞Looking for someone, let’s see if you measure∞When the lights go up, get your figure low, I live around the corner∞We’re on the corner in a fashionate way∞I look for you everyday, where are your friends? Did they leave you again? I’m a graceful doe on the dance floor, you’re leaning closer with every turn∞I spotted you long before, pulled you in with my magnetic thighs (One more time) Lights, passion, looking for some action∞Don’t care where you’re from, get over here, want you every night, haven’t I made that clear∞Hustle hustle, shine shine, summer summer, glow glow glow∞Hold that pose, sink so low, stare her down, now talk to me talk to me∞Feels like you want to be my bike, I want to ride you all night, come here, and get away from me, I thought you were someone, who would be close to me

Magnetize {Snubluck Remix}

Album Art by Jacqueline Sophia Cordova / Ancient Future: https://theancientfvtvre.tumblr.com/

"Most of these songs have been written for years. When I joined the band in 2016, deCollage was going through a transformation. As the formation settled into Reed, Adrian Wright (drums and Percussion) and I (Synths, Synth Bass), we began to strip all the songs Reed had for years and completely rearrange them to fit the new iteration of deCollage. When we started to record, we wanted to try and capture the live spontaneity of Adrians drums and my synth bass. We decided to start by recording our live arrangements at Catadawn Studios here in Denver. From that session we pretty much only kept the drum takes and began to build the arrangements from there. Reed and I started to fill these songs with every synth part and tone we could imagine at Moon Magnet Studios. Adrian filled in the drums with crazy atmospheric percussion sounds with his sensory percussion. Somewhere along the road we got the insane synth and guitar tones of Kris Becker to sprinkle on the top of what we had been working on for a few years. Our honorary member Sean Culliton from my other band Retrofette played Saxophone. Jamie Nagode (Snarklet) recorded vocals on the singalong section of the song." ~ Ben Weirich

"23 people were a part of the music video. We hung out and ate sprinkle pizza, it was a mess! Here's a list of everyone involved: Mona Magno (Twin Flame Medicine/Free Music For Free People), Hannah Oreskovich (Bolder Beat), Greg Laut (Whiskey Autumn), Juli Williams (GlitchyBB), Jay Maike (Deth Rali), Jamie Nagode/Snarklet (Bun Bun), Riley Merino, Cassidy Bacon (The Whimsy of Things), Kevin Netz (Jurassic Netz), Laura Goldhamer (Laura Goldhamer!!), Mark Emmons (Moon Hammer), Lela Tara Roy (Oxeye Daisy), Heather Stone, Andy Ininns (Andy AI), Collin O'Toole (Substitute Creature), Megan Crooks (Moon Hammer), Blake Talley (Talley), Ishka Bee Phoenix (Ghost Tapes/Moon Hammer), Kyle Hartman (The UMS), Babelord, Max Geimer (déCollage), Daniel DiMarchi, & I." ~ Reed Fuchs

If Birds Gathered Our Hair For Nesting

We created this 10min soundtrack loop to accompany the visual artworks of Andrea Thurber & her team in the Ruptured Time room at Meow Wolf Denver, Convergence Station. In this piece, we explore feelings of nostalgia and our relationship to memories, fractured memories, and memory loss. 

Once we were clear on the direction and overall feel of the piece, we sat down to start recording and things came flowing out. We recorded percussion using found objects in our space at Moon Magnet studios, tracking layers of polyrhythms that could be mixed and matched to create different grooves and textures. We searched for samples of footsteps, clocks, water - anything that could be used percussively and connect the listener to nostalgic memories. After we put together many different beats, Ben Weirich composed synth parts to encompass a large envelope of feeling. His goal was to keep the piece fairly happy sounding, while moving through events that remind us of sadness, melancholy, or fear. We were inspired further by the audio recordings from Andrea’s family video, which she has incorporated into the visual elements of the room. With Andrea’s permission, we were able to use sound clips from the videos, with two generations of kids experiencing life’s joys in the way only kids can. Once we had the clips placed, we added samples of morning birds, crickets, fireworks, wind, and thunderstorms. This gave our looping soundscape the feeling of a summer day’s cycle. 
We hope that those who hear our sound piece, paired with the surrounding visual/ interactive artwork, will experience nostalgia in a new way, whether it be through sound, touch, taste, smell, or visual cues. We also hope to bring awareness to how nostalgia may be experienced by someone who’s memories are fractured or difficult to access.

Meow Wolf Song for Ruptured Time Room at Convergence Station by Ben Weirich & Reed Fox

If Salvador Dali’s paintings came to life, they would sound like DeCollage; a kaleidoscopic avant-pop band creating space for imagination. Their upcoming 4th album transports the listener into the psychic depths of a bouncy house exploding with bubble blowing glitter fairies wearing rainbow lipstick. Called the "grandchildren of Elephant 6" by Impose Magazine, they've brought their playful surrealism to stages shared with of Montreal, Dan Deacon, Animal Collective, and Deerhoof since their inception in 2009 (Denver). In 2020, their collaborations with Naytronix from tUnE-yArDs were released in the form of two music videos. Blurring barriers, at Red Rocks & Meow Wolf they handed out a seemingly infinite supply of googly eyes and fed oysters to the audience. Meow Wolf liked it so much that they hired déCollage to score a permanent 10min loop for one of their rooms.

The band’s previous album was released in partnership with Misra Records and Sub Pop Licensing. Charting at #16 on CMJ Radio, Magnetize is a spirited, collaborative album spanning over 20 artists across multiple genres including members of Sound of Ceres, Ancient Elk, Rubedo, Rose Quartz and many more. Like a space blanket, their live shows warm any heart.
